Hi Everyone, I recently picked up a Kyosho Mad Crusher and really like it, but I want something that handles better. The truck is great fun but it really doesn't handle. I've been away from nitro RC for a while(been playing with 1/5 scale)
I'm looking at truggys and the NT48.3 came up. I have a few questions I hope you can help me with: 1. If i just want to have fun on my farm and not race, would this kit be overkill? 2. Will it accept a pull start engine like the KE25? 3. For my purposes, would I be better off with a simple RTR like the the Inferno Neo ST Race spec 2? Thanks! |
Could anyone tell me the length of the kit rear center dogbone? Pin center to pin center.
thanks |
Could someone please measure the width of the chassis from side guard to side guard?
|
Any news on a release dater a new truck, etc? I see the NT48.3 has been discontinued.

As you might have heard, Tekno RC is actively developing new 1/8th scale trucks based on the 2.0 platform. As we speak, the trucks are going through aggressive testing to ensure they live up to the high standards the NT48.3 and ET48.3 have set. One of our priorities has always been not to use our customers as "beta" testers, and we want to make sure the trucks are as good as they can be before release. We thank you for making our trucks your first choice to run in your backyard or on the track, and although the trucks are a little delayed, we are confident our next generation NT48 and ET48 will live up to and surpass your expectations. We anticipate the new ET48 will be available for purchase in February or March 2021, and the NT48 will be shortly after. Thank you to our friends over at JConcepts for the photo!” |

If the new truck is out there being ran by team drivers, it would be cool if Tekno would put the new truck on their website. Even if it won’t be available for awhile, it would be cool to be able to check it out.

I'm sure I've asked in one of these threads already but I'm going to ask again. What are the weak points on the NT for bashing? Heard the diffs and spur gears wear out. Trying to decide if I should wait on the next kit or buy the 8T.

dunno about the diffs and spurs wearing out on the previous NT 48 variations, but I do know that the NB 48 2.0 has larger/stronger diff gears and so will the new NT 48 2.0. Hope that helps 😎
Edit: Just found the thread. It was the outdrive wearing out and the driveshafts breaking. |
Anybody running the nt48.3 and waiting for the new 2.0 truck to release, I am looking for some ideas to try for my truck this is really tail happy not that I don't like a loose rear but this is every corner on and off throttle and diffs are 10-15-7 and rear pills are down and pointing outwards and i don't have any weight in the rear as of yet so any ideas or set-up would be greatly appreciated so either post here or better yet PM me with information

One Note from the manual, maybe of help : Note: The steering stops provide adjustable travel limiters to control overall steering throw. For all but the tightest tracks, at least 1 washers should be used. With too much steering travel the rear end will lose traction coming out of corners and the vehicle will be very hard to drive. After months of testing on dierent track surfaces, 4 washers is the stock setting. IF THE REAR END OF YOUR VEHICLE IS LOOSE, USE MORE WASHERS. |
Any word as to when this new truggy will be out? Been awhile....tired of breaking arms on the kyosho
